Dr. Raymond Khong
B.D.Sc.
Raymond graduated in 1994 from the University of
Melbourne and has worked in his current clinic since then, first as
an employed dentist to practice principal now. Driven
by the dedicated staff members, Diamond Creek Dental grew from a small
part-time practice to the well-respected busy full-time practice here
today. He is assisted by two dentists with a passion for excellence in
the dental field, Dr Michael Kousari and Dr Nancy Henein. Raymond
is married and has two lovely daughters and a son, and comes originally
from Malaysia. He loves treating children and they seem to be quite
comfortable with his approach. It is always a joy to see these
children from year to year and watching them
develop. Cosmetic dental work is a particular passion of his, hence
the title of this website. There are so many ways to improve your
smile, come in and discuss a few!

Porcelain and Cosmetic
Dentistry
Porcelain is the magic material
that dentists prefer to create extremely life-like aesthetic
results. There are many ways to use porcelain to make your teeth
look better - veneers or crowns come to mind. If you are missing a
tooth or two, the bridges and implants are the way to go. All of
these use porcelain. Porcelain may seem expensive, but it
lasts a very, very long time, so it becomes a worthwhile investment.
If finances are restrictive, you may want to consider the option of
using resin (very tough plastic) as an alternative.
Outside the Dental Clinic
Raymond's passion outside of dentistry is
music-or more precisely, singing. Raymond is trained operatic tenor and has sung with the
Australian Opera,
the
Victoria State Opera and various local opera companies. In 2003 he
was
nominated for a Green Room Award for Best Singer in a
Principal Role for his stirring performance in Chamber Made Opera's
worldwide premiere of
The Possessed, an original Australian opera.
(Review
in The Age). Though trained in opera, Raymond is known
for his talent as a "crossover artist", singing in variety of styles
from opera to musicals to modern ballads.

These days Raymond and his wife,
May, who is a concert
pianist, spends much
of their time producing benefit concerts with
the aim to raise
funds for
charity. So far they have raised nearly $30,000 for charity, which
includes proceeds from the sale of their CD, entitled "Voices for
Hope".
